We're on a mission to bring the world of improv to kids and support them to express their uniqueness!

Improvisation

Why the Art of Improv is Great for Kids!

For ages 9 - 12. Improv exercises create an environment of trust and support. There are no mistakes and every expression and person is treated like gold. This atmosphere allows kids to express themselves freely. Kids learn to connect, listen, empathize, share, and be grateful for their differences and uniqueness. The team spirit that is built in class gives kids a sense of belonging and confidence they will take with them into life and home.

Class Showcase

It's showtime! ​

Watch your kids perform scenes as seen on the show 'Whose Line is It Anyways'. Enjoy their imaginations expressed on stage and watch your kids playing it BIG and BOLD. The show will be held on the last day of camp, Friday August 4th @ 4pm.

"I have seen Matt give his full attention to my own kids, interacting with them in improv exercises, various sports activities, and theatrical adventures. The care he gives to them as individuals and his expertise have bettered their skills, but more importantly given them a trusted mentor and friend."

Randy Hirt, Director of Ed., Neighborhood Youth Assoc.

"The growth in confidence and self-esteem that our students have gained from the improv is immense and palpable. Matthew is a sincere and engaging teacher with an infectious love and passion for his students. We are so fortunate to have him this year."

Amelia Villa, Community Manager, Nextspace, Culver City.

"I have never taken or even thought of taking an improv class and it was so much fun. Matthew was able to get guests involved, nothing felt forced. You can tell how passionate he is and how much he really wants to help people become bolder, more expressive versions of themselves. I can't wait to book another class with him!"

Dorothy Gaffney, Mother & Real Estate Agent.

"Matt has an amazing talent with kids. They adore him and love the games he plays with them. It's clearly a natural talent he has, bringing the kids out of their shells. He loves supporting and bringing out the best in people, and especially children."
